Restaurant-Style Potato Salad
Excellent recipe, you wouldn't think that the small amounts of some of the ingredients would make that much difference, but they each brought a subtle flavor to the party. It's easy to adust this to your personal taste, but try it once with all the listed ingredients. My boyfriend who thought he didn't like potatoe salad likes this one. Rather than boiling the potatoes, I rubbed them with olive oil and baked them. I like the flavor and texture of the potatoes better this way. After baking, you can remove the skins or leave them on. Oh, and use good quality real mayonaise. It does make a difference.

World's Best Scones! From Scotland to the Savoy to the U.S.
I followed the recipe exactly and these were heavenly. I'm not a morning person, so the night before I used my food processor to cut the butter into the flour mixture. Just pulse a few times until crumbly. At this point I put it all in the refrigerator. In the morning, all I had to do was mix in the milk/sour cream and shape. I also sprinkled a bit of sugar on them before baking just because I like that crunchy top. Hot delicious scones with little effort in the morning. I usually roll my eyes when people title their recipes "the best yada yada in the world," but these just might be!

Sugar Cookie Icing
Great decorating icing. I don't like a lot of icing on cookies so I thinned it out a bit and used a pastry brush to "paint" on the icing. After it dries you can go back and pipe additional details. Makes a beautiful cookie.
